Donation Requests
The Olander Park System believes it is important to give back to the community we serve, and each year we are proud to support hundreds of charitable events and organizations through in-kind donations.
Requests are considered on an ongoing basis and fulfilled based on the guidelines and process below:
Donation Requests – Guidelines
The Olander Park System will consider donation requests that have a charitable purpose, typically a donation item for a raffle or silent auction at a fundraising event. However, other requests that are charitable in nature will be considered.
In order to receive a donation from TOPS, the request must include a valid Tax ID/EIN for the organization requesting the donation.
The requesting organization must be based in the Sylvania School District.
The following types of requests will NOT be considered:
- For-profit entities
- Political causes, candidates, organizations or campaigns
- Advertising, marketing or promotional materials
- “Goody bag” or “grab bag” requests to provide a product for all event attendees
Due to the volume of requests received, TOPS is able to make one donation to an organization per calendar year.
Process
Donation requests must be received at least 4 weeks prior to the event date. Requests should be submitted via the online request form. You will receive a confirmation email after completion. Requests may take up to three weeks to process, and approved requests will be sent out via post mail.
